Abstract:

The primary subject matter of this case concerns business law and statistical analysis.
Secondary issues examine negligence vs. negligence per se; cause in fact; contributory vs.
comparative negligence; statute of limitations; and statistical analysis involving proportions and
expected value. The case also presents strategic thinking and ethical issues related to business
conduct and their affects on consumers.
The case has a difficulty of level three, appropriate for junior level courses. The case is
intended to be taught in three class hours, including a class presentation by student teams. The case
is expected to require a minimum of three hours of outside preparation by student teams that present
a report.
This case is designed for use in an upper division inter-disciplinary business course. The
purpose of the course is to enable students to utilize knowledge they have gained in their lower
division core business courses that include one business law course and one statistics course.
However, the case can be easily modified for use as an in class or take-home assignment in an
introductory business law course by eliminating the Case B Questions on statistics.
